Hilton Palm Springs
Although the Hilton Palm Springs has normal bedrooms with king and queen beds, if you are looking for luxury, you will likely want to stay in one of the hotel's suites. The suites in this AAA three-diamond hotel are 660 square feet and feature a contemporary desert design and wooden shutters next to the balcony or patio. Every suite has a 32-inch television, an alarm clock with an MP3 dock, a pullout couch, Wi-Fi access, a work desk and relaxing bath products. When you are not in your room, Elements Spa is a popular place to visit in the hotel. This spa features facials, manicures, pedicures and massages that are designed to be soothing and relaxing. The spa is an especially good place to visit after golfing at the Desert Dunes Golf Course, which is only about four miles away.
